Afcons Infrastructure has been selected as the lowest bidder for a 677.07 million project to rehabilitate and construct a railway line in Europe, the company said. The award, valued at 677.07 million excluding taxes, is equivalent to approximately Rs 75,440 million and represents Afcons Infrastructure's largest international order to date. The company noted the contract underscores its long-term commitment to delivering world-class infrastructure projects globally. The scope of work includes reconstruction of the existing railway track and the construction of a second line, together with overhead electrification, signalling and telecommunication works. The contract requires integrated civil, electrical and systems delivery across multiple disciplines, reflecting complex project management and engineering requirements. The work will involve coordination with local authorities and project stakeholders in the host European country. Krishnamurthy Subramanian, executive chairman of Afcons Infrastructure, said that the milestone marked a significant step in the company's global journey and reflected its ability to deliver complex, large-scale infrastructure solutions across geographies. He added that the project demonstrated Afcons's contribution to the modernisation of a railway network in the European country and strengthened its position as a trusted partner in international infrastructure development. Afcons Infrastructure, the flagship infrastructure engineering and construction company of the Shapoorji Pallonji Group, has delivered projects including expressways, underground and elevated metros, railways, bridges, dams, irrigation systems, hydro schemes, water supply works, ports, breakwaters and oil and gas facilities around the world. The company's consolidated net profit declined 34.77 per cent to Rs 970.9 mn on a 7.33 per cent fall in revenue to Rs 29,757.7 mn in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 compared with the same quarter a year earlier. Market reaction saw Afcons Infrastructure shares slip 3.92 per cent to Rs 327.40 on the BSE, reflecting investor appraisal of near-term financials alongside the strategic significance of the international order. The company indicated that the Europe contract would bolster its international portfolio and enhance its capability to pursue complex civil and systems projects overseas.
